A few pictures combining First Legion's Schwerer Panzerspähwagen Sd.Kfz.232 (8-Rad) with some Hudson & Allen scenics.

Looks like 'Cover Art' for an upcoming FL newsletter. Incredible setting and pics.

Very nice, Frank. You know do not only have a great FL collection, but it appears you have also shopped at ken's a little.

I would be very interested to see how you display these dioramas - or do you use them exclusively for photography?

Thanks guys.

In regards to the question about how I display these pieces when not in use, I keep all my figures and vehicles in a couple of curios and my scenics and dioramas I keep packed away when not taking pictures. When I get the urge to play I pull out the items appropriate for the scene I'm trying to create. I have three cats so leaving anything out that isn't behind glass is out of the question.

A few more shots for this thread.

Great pictures mate thanks for posting them.

This time you achieved perfection when comes to hide the soldiers bases...

Question: are you positioned the lights over the top 90 degrees on the dio or you place more like 45 degrees towards the soldiers? It seems to be a little too bright, what do you think?

Still great shots my friend.

Rod.

An absolutely winning triad - First Legion, Hudson & Allen, and Frank behind the camera. I tip my old campaign hat off to you sir, nicely done . . . .

Great shots of the 'village' Frank. I like the lighting just fine... just like one of those bright summer days that makes you squint a little. Probably not the best summer for the village though...
